Sorrow's Shroud

Autumnal frost my long-missed friend
The snow kisses gentle and cold
I'll watch here alone as the centuries pass
Frozen, I mock your sad world

I'm raising my colours against the sky
This sacred boreal place
Console me when it's me alone out here
The sky watches me bid farewell

The sanctity of these forgotten lands
The mountains imposing and strong
Solitude eternal, I'll know more than you
You can't begin to understand

I raise my voice and heed my brothers to make
This border our final stand
Tears frozen down yet the anger still burns
We'll live covered here forevermore

I wear my sorrow like a shroud against my skin
Sheltered from the hollow man
Cast into the world like unborn, aeons old
Know more than you will ever dream
